Sennockian Song at first glance looks interesting Fatlad will blitz it later and see how it comes out profile wise.

The inconsistent Master Of Finance returns to HQ too. Unlike many of MJ's the ground looks fine if soft.

The ground is a worry even though pedigree not too bad for it. The draw is something else that bothers me Fatlad, yes it's 12 and a bit furlongs but the outside quarters are still suggestive that 11 is a negative. The over all profile is ok ie unexposed 3yo no wins, 2nd run in hcp, up in trip and class. The figures are better in 3yo only races than stepping into 3yo+ company and Chester has not been a track to send these, Beverley,Hamilton.Musselburgh,catterick have been strong with this type.

With ground and draw doubts round here, I can't be having it.

Master Of Finance could leave that last run (when i was on at epsom, didn't go a yard) well behind in the 5:00 Newmarket , he has followed such runs with a win or a transformed effort at least.You could say the Revolutionist run was it's best of career here penultimate start but I can't help thinking there's bound to be at least 1 or 2 of the unexposed runners that will be too good off the current mark.

Out of all the runners today i thought Love Oasis may be able to make it's experience count in the opening mdn at Chester, If it had shown a bit more early speed i would have given it a go from stall 4 but I'd rather wait for a handicapper i really fancy the way things have been going.

So sitting it out today, just hope MOF doesn't manage to do the business more than anything.

Gl anyone playing.

no mention of his in the first at newcastle. looks to have a favourites chance, c/d win in what looks like a quick time. ??

Playing Love Oasis in the first at Chester Fav drawn in the car park and Dascombes outside of Johnstons as well.

Goodwood on the horizon now

Just been watching MJ's horse in that last race at Lingers , I take on board it was its' a/w debut but that was a shocking run.
I know his horses are in and out but this must be very frustrating for those who follow him.

Rosy Morning out again today at ponty is the headache  race of the day for me.

Has bundles of early and a decent draw to attack from, faster ground may also help see this trip out.Although the class (4) is the same as last run over CD when collared very late, the actual opposition has an average OR of 74 today as opposed 80 last time so on paper it looks a slight ease in level of opposition.

Even the RP has spotted the main concern here today and that has to be Sands Chorus (also drawn to attack), the way to get beat with this horse in the race is to hook up with it early.If this were the case here the chances are massively in favour of the more patiently ridden ones, ideally something with mile speed that stays a bit further.

5/1 last night was giving me a dilemma, 3/1 now looks skinny in this scenario. The horse can no doubt take a mile contest in this sort of company but I think it may be happier over a tight 7f somewhere, the thinking being it has plenty enough speed but also the tank wouldn't be running on fumes in the last 100 yards.

My gut feeling is that SC just won't ever take a sit with such a draw and Rosy Morning may be a hard hold if they decide to stalk it, Whatever happens I can't convince myself 3/1 is a good price today.

Visually a mile looks right on it's boundary limits to me Fatlad, I like the horses that I think will stay a bit further and can keep grinding away on the front. I could be wrong but it seems more speed orientated to me and the last thing it needs is more speed in the race over this trip.

just need sds to hit the traps,get the sectionals right and its 2/2 for LOVE DREAMS. 

Just had a quick glance at Triassic this could be more like it that Windsor run was pretty decent and will stay surprised he has no other entries

I was just writing one up for Heraldic striding. Quite fancy it! GL

Heraldic in the 4.40 at Ponte 33/1

Last and only win was in a class 5 race last year over 6F. Since then has ran in several class 4s, 3s and even a class 2. Best runs on ratings have been 7 length 5th behind Galileo Gold last year and a 9 length last in a class 2 last month. Finally drops back down today to a class 5 race and runs a mark of 74 having been running off marks in the mid 80s

Has a lot to find to win this, but given the horse never ran on ground with firm in the description and is by  Discreet Cat and a dam sire who both do well on firm ground, I hope this will be enough to make a difference. At the price it wont hurt to find out.

Dibdob the yard is 10-31 (32.3%) +£18.55 SP in these contests

The only thing I'd say is the winners of these races for the yard have been quite easy to find, 11/1 the biggest price with others in top 3 of betting, the other big prices have been stuffed.

Glasgow gl with Love Dreams, it's not really the sort i'm looking at on here

4 out of the 7 that came into a classified (3yo) beaten 15l or more have won, but the market has often been quite aware of their chance.

Unlike some of the better class hcps where they can suddenly come back to form under favourable conditions where they can win/run very well at bigger odds.

This is what's bothering me here, i get the logic of why this horse could return to form and run a big race but especially in these sheikh's silks i find the market is often pretty clued up in races of this class. The sheikh has had 5 runners in classifieds and the winner was 5/2 (had been touched off in a class 3 hcp lto), the highest priced runner has been 5/1 before today's.

Gl with Heraldic Dibdob i wish you luck (through gritted teeth!)

gl with Triassic striding
Those stats you brought up for the classifieds very interesting I'm taking it in for the future
